Tip

You can use any vegetables instead of or with corn - peas etc. It encourages kids to eat veggies!

You can vary the amount of milk depending on how runny you prefer the white sauce. Anything from 350g to 400g is fine. 350g is a bit less runny.

Be careful not to add too much lemon juice to mixture or it may curdle the mixture

Cooking the pasta on the stove top is optional it just speeds up the process and gets dinner on the table sooner!

    Very nice. Personally I would like to add a bit of stock paste to increase the saltiness, but very nice.

    Smile Lovely recipe. I personally would like it with less pasta but my husband loved it with the full packet - bar a little for our dog 😉. Will definitely cook again.
